Surprise Twin Home Birth

Hi everyone,

I watched this video yesterday showing a surprise twin home birth and I just wanted to share it here as it's pretty mind-blowing. The lady on the video had just delivered her baby and thought she was starting to deliver the placenta when the midwife she was supporting her tells her 'I think you've got another baby in there'. Can you imagine?! I also wanted to comment on the communication of the midwife which I personally felt was excellent. She stayed calm and focused in a very unexpected situation and continued to help the mother to have the type of birth she wanted.
